If it is deleted, where did all the babies go in limbo?

Yes.
The Church has pondered the suggestion of Limbo for a few hundred years and has decided that it is not a good idea. Limbo was never official doctrine.
Jesus said, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to the whole creation. He who believes and is baptized will be saved." (Mark 16:15-16)
For centuries, people have wondered about children who died before they were baptized. The Bible does not explicitly state that they will go to heaven.
Limbo was suggested as the place where unbaptized babies went when they died. This idea was never official Church doctrine and has been rejected.
The Church now says that it is not sure what happens to unbaptized babies when they die but she entrusts them to the mercy of God.
With love in Christ.

Limbo always was and still is, just a theory. It was never dogma. It has not been part of the Catholic Catechism since about 2002 at least. This is old news.
Cheers :-)

If that's what the Catholics choose to believe, why not? Allegedly to Heaven.

He does not.
And he did not.
It's no defined teaching and it's a matter of theological opinion.

They disappear. The pope is performing abortions. A sad story indeed. :(
